🛑 STOP Puppy Biting Fast! Everything You NEED To Know

[@McCannDogs]

Have you tried EVERYTHING and you still have a biting problem? You're missing the most important part: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rojUZ2R6fpmZr8k Happy Training!

Can you show how to stop a frenchie from biting hands and jump when company comes. He didn't wear collar

[@judymiller5154]

[@angelalvarez1168]

Hi , how old is this puppy?

[@judymiller5154]

​@@angelalvarez1168 I'm thinking about 6 months. I have a lab puppy who is just short of 5 months, (but I exercise her a LOT, so she is not so crazy.)

[@IAMGiftbearer]

I do this already with my 6 month old Malinois puppy often although it takes much longer for him to settle than this puppy in the video and as soon as he does and I praise him he just starts biting again the first chance he gets. He will also bite on the leash while correcting him. I lifted up my shirt this morning and noticed I have about a 2 inch bruise on my abdomen from where he grabbed me yesterday during training. If I put my arms behind my back he'll go for the torso. My arms are finally recovering from the past few weeks bruises and scratches. I can tell he's testing me. You'd think he'd give up eventually once he realizes that I'm not going to, but no. He has these little bite-fests and then stops when he's ready. I think he may be regressing because of his age. He had gotten much better for awhile but now does it some in almost every training session or interaction, even during play. I am doing shorter training sessions and limiting how much time he gets to run around in hopes that will reduce it. I'm starting to desensitize him to wearing a muzzle by putting a treat in there also.

[@beltoftruth56]

My arms are all scratched up , so glad this video popped up,

[@perfectblueeeee]

I love the private lesson format! It’s nice to see dogs who weren’t raised by trainers their whole life, it is really a testament to how good your methods are when they learn just as fast!

[@diddabelle8884]

Isn’t it so refreshing!! Makes us at home feel like we aren’t failing our dogs they are just acting like normal puppies who need a little guidance in the right direction

[@kekkler]

This video is such a god send. Didn’t get but 10 minutes in and tried the techniques and it immediately started a feedback loop with my puppy that worked. With each verbal cue of disapproval followed by a firm grabbing, followed by a gentler grip when he settled, followed by letting go and voicing approval… he nipped less and less until he seemed to recognize that he should not do that to me. You have no idea how amazing that is to me. Thank you!!

[@robin212212]

great point; a lot of people are afraid of correcting their dog because they think it is mean or cruel but that is how dogs communicate. If you observe how dogs interact with each other, mother dogs with their puppies; littermates, etc. the corrections they give to each other are much harsher.

[@barbpittman4660]

This is exactly the kind of video training I've been looking for! Someone with an actual puppy who hasn't already been trained to the behavior! It's SO much more helpful. Can't wait to use this in reality with my 9 week old puppy!

[@McCannDogs]

Glad you found it helpful, Barb! Happy Training!

[@lynnbailey1616]

I want to thank you very much for this video as well, you have answered a few of my questions that I needed answering. There’s one other trainer that I have watched that does exactly what you have said not to do and that is to replace that behavior with a toy so that their unwanted behavior continues. This trainer doesn’t use any correction when the dog is pulling or biting and I don’t I don’t understand that. I do, however have one question that no one has been able to answer for me. I have a little over one year old cockapoo who steals everything and burrows her face in her paws and won’t let go of it even for her favorite treat or toy or a piece of meat. She knows the command leave it, but it depends on whether she wants to follow the command or not. How do I get some thing away from her that she does not want to give up? Thanks you much, look forward to your videos. Lynn

[@Kate98755]

yea way too late for me, i needed this 13 mo ago…i slogged through the puppy biting, attacking us phase. She still attacks when she’s tired or hungry, im now trying to remove myself and ignore her, it delays her feeding because i will not feed her if she attacks for it.

This lady taught me so much about puppy obedience than any other video. I got the home leash, I started a schedule for potty training, I started crate training (tho I ended up getting a very big crate), and now I know how to control nipping. THANK YOU ❤

[@namorange55]

I can’t thank you enough for this video. My almost 5 month old puppy had been terrible with the biting, everyone told me he is a puppy and he will grow out of it. I tell you the bites literally made me cry, and I have a very high pain tolerance he drew blood my hands have all the bite marks. I watched this video last evening and tried to hold his collar as you suggested he threw a massive tantrum, if someone heard us would have thought I’m doing something to my puppy 😂 but he eventually calmed down. I kept practising that today and lo and behold first time since I brought his home I was able to sit with him for one hour, pet him, play with him without a single bite. I’m so so grateful to you for sharing this. Massive thanks 🙏

[@bkilkenney]

I love this b/c there’s no doubt in my mind that only redirecting does not work with my puppy. There are times when I need to make the situation safe and calm her down. Just putting another toy in her mouth doesn’t work in every situation!

[@giraffezebra2698]

This has to be the calmest puppy I’ve seen in a video. My puppy would still be jumping on the trainer, chewing the leash, chewing pant legs non stop. None of this works with my little puppy. I have a small breed and he doesn’t sit still for a moment. I wish a trainer could help my guy. So far any trainer I’ve seen has just as many problems with him as I do. He jumps and squirms and nips pretty much all day. I’ve had many dogs over the decades, but never one as wild as this one. I’d love to see this trainer try to tame my wild child.

[@HolisticDramaFree]

Right?? Same mine has the zoomies even after being restrained with a leash he does flips and leaps far. He's a puppy weimaraner and he's doubling in size every 2 weeks

[@Katfishforrent]

It can sometimes seem like it's not working, and taking forever. And we don't realize that we are actually slipping up, which actually sets any training back entirely. Just a single instance of allowing a certain behavior, or not getting the correction/reward at the right moment, can undo everything. Sometimes, dogs need more than just a reward/positive reinforcement. And having a balanced approach is more effective. Not in any way advocating for physical harm. I'm just talking about methods that communicate that their behavior was not ok.

[@giraffezebra2698]

@@Katfishforrent one year and 5 dog trainers later, nothing has improved. I’m beginning to think he really is untrainable. None of the trainers believe in negative training, but my dog literally NEVER sits and never stops jumping. How do you reward positive behavior when it never happens? He’s mine and I won’t rehome him, but it’s tough knowing he will never be a dog I can have around my 90 year old mom or small grandchildren. He doesn’t know how to settle down. He runs full speed and jumps on them. Crate? He barks like he’s being killed. Tether? He chews it. Ex-pen? Same as crate. I’m exhausted, and thousands of dollars poorer wasted on trainers.

[@kev-the-windsurfer.]

This is brilliant!! I have watched this a couple opf times now, and every time I pick up something more, I am working with my 9 week old German Shepherd and his nipping/biting, we have come a long way through this video. He's gone from Alligator rolls and screaming on correction, to sitting calmly if I have to do any sort of correction. Its a lot of work, but so worth it, thank you!! So many things to work on when they're puppies!!

[@kev-the-windsurfer.]

@@awkwardspacepig3545 I am by no means an expert and it's always best to consult a professional if you're having trouble, but this was my experience after I watched this video. My first big correction as per the demo was enlightening to say the least. I did the collar hold combined with the elbow on the body holding him steady, he hated it and screamed so much so I weas worried someone might think I was beating him, but I held though it, I then felt him suddelny go limp, so I eased the hold and was just holding him by the collar, and that was the beginning of getting the situation under control. If he puts his mouth on my hand for example, I can slide my hand up and grab his collar and he will most times automatically sit and I can feel him relaxing, once hes relaxed and I can handle his muzzle and around his face without the mouth opening, then I give him a treat. I just started the "Play and settle" thing today, that is really good. The other one he likes is the "Tug and out" game, he likes that and has never nipped me when we're playing. But, this is ongoing, its not just a one time fix, and like the McCann trainers say, set your puppy up for success, I really try hard not to put him in situations where he's definitely going to fail, gotta watch him like a hawk.

[@kev-the-windsurfer.]

@@awkwardspacepig3545 Oh and sorry I never answered you question. No I didn't experience any territorial behaviour, I find he's more submisive now, he seems to respect me more, that said there is some minor mouthing I am still working on, but I have even improved that after watching this video for a third time. He seems to really understand what I expect now. Puppies can be really hard work!! But the hard work pays dividends!!

[@kev-the-windsurfer.]

@@awkwardspacepig3545 happy to help, this is my first dog for 35 years and I had forgiotten just how intense the inital few weeks are, so its great to have these channels we can use to help us along the way. We are in a pretty good routine now so things are a lot more settled. Great to hear you had some success, it is a pretty crazy thing to do, but it makes sense that now they are away from their pack and mother, that they now rely on our guidance. Thank you, and best of luck to you too.

Do you have a video on puppy biting that is directed towards a kid audience? Maybe something short and simple? 🤔 We just rescued a 6 mo old kelpie who is sweet, smart, but quite mouthy, struggling with her herding instincts. We’ve directed the kids to immediately tell her “no” the second her teeth make contact, but they could probably use some help from an expert such as yourself. Just discovered your channel and it’s great! (Also noticed it recommended on a poodle blog I was just reading.) Thanks for such good content!

[@dianebrownold1259]

This is an excellent and important video. Many years ago I ended up in the emergency room with my elderly mother (who was on blood thinners) because of “playful” puppy biting by my young lab. Fortunately, she was well taken care of by the emergency physician. However, I had to convince the ER admissions person not to report it as a dog bite to the authorities. It could have easily been a much different and terrible outcome for both my mother and my puppy.

[@EarzOnTunz]

Yeah i worry about this too because the husky bites right at my mom on blood thinners but my mom wants to keep her

[@kzookid2051]

Great info. I wish my current dog's first owners had worked with him like this. Not only would he not have ended up in the shelter at 2 years old, but his first steps out of the shelter door wouldn't have been to immediately turn me around so that I fell over and broke my shoulder. Three years later we're still working on calming the boxer brain in his pit bull body, but he's finally catching on to the difference between full crazy play and relaxing. Now my big challenge is to get him to let me trim his nails without drawing blood. He's a beastly sweetheart, but it has definitely been a journey. I can even get him to reluctantly let me take something from him in trade for a treat. Maybe by this time next year he'll even drop it. 😃

You draw blood from him during nail trims? Or he draws blood from you??? Neither is great

I really appreciate the fact the you use discipline to teach the dogs as well as positive reinforcement…i dont agree with posit d all the way…to me it seems pretty clear that this world works in positive vs negative things and it’s only being realistic to assume that they learn what’s good as well as what’s not…good and happy positive isn’t always practical.

[@GloryMaldonado-y1u]

This video training is so good! It helped my puppy 100%. Thank you

[@Jay-vp3kk]

A small point of order, when stopping the play and grabbing the puppy's collar it would probably be good to give the puppy a chance to be right before grabbing the collar rather then expecting it to know what you want instantly from having its collar grabbed. So a command like "calm" or "relax" coupled with good body communication of stopping the play and calming down yourself first gives the puppy a chance to be right and that will allow you to grab the collar without using any disciplinary force or movement what so ever - just holding the collaring completely loose. Set your dogs up for success.

[@EarzOnTunz]

It’s nice if you don’t have an alligator pup. I have to stop the biting from escalating first and she bites from every direction and has no interest in an command especially “calm.” I am saying “settle” but I do grab with just enough force to stop the incisors and then relapse collar tension as soon as she quits gatoring.

[@revelcosmi]

Fun fact: When my cattle dog was a pup, he was very mouthy (as you would expect with that age and breed). It went on for months regardless of training, and i was frustrated. One day i asked myself if maybe he wasnt just being a dog, but maybe he was asking for something. I asked him, "scratches?" And he immediately let my wrist go and sat down for scratches. It was that moment i realized my dog wasnt trying to play or nip or bite, but was asking me for scratches for months. I just didnt understand. Since then, whenever he puts his mouth on my wrist (mouthy, not damaging at all, super gentle) he wants scratches and attention. It works for us.

[@Magritte607]

This was a great watch. I need all the training I can get. My puppy is on the right path. My question is... when doing the hold for calm, while watching, Kayl is the one handing the reward. How do we hold AND give the treat reward? my hands are both holding the puppy :)

[@torielric]

I suggest practicing this technique while you don't need to do anything else with your other hand until the puppy understands fully that they shouldn't bite. Then you can do whatever you need to do with your free hand!

Frozen nylabones and kongs as preventables and it soothes their teeth/gums. Continue positive reinforcing settle training because that attacks the root of the issue. As a tasty treat for teethers, you can fill Kongs with treats and peanut butter (and even chicken broth) and freeze them. Gives them something to chew, its tasty and keeps them occupied for a bit.

How do you go about when the puppy lies down, while during correction, and get more bitey/excited? We have a lab/german shepherd, who does this a lot when we corrects her biting. Should we let her stay on her back, or try to get her in an upright position while correcting?

Same that’s my problem too. My 12 week old Australian Shepard immediately slides down on the floor when I’m trying to correct the biting.

[@hyperbolicowl2824]

I would love an answer to this. My 13 week Aussie/Heeler mix will not only try rolling but will flop to his back and refuse to sit back up. I'd love to know if I should correct his posture or if it means I'm just not holding firmly enough.

[@Michelle--B]

@@GrandPapi95 Hi, try 16:49

[@jackthefunshack8618]

Hmmm, from my prior raising of puppies I know that exposing the belly is a submissive move, and in fact holding my puppy in that position until their whole attitude was submissive (no longer struggling, no longer yelping, trying to lick me instead of trying to bite) was how I knew they were submitting. Of course I NEVER hurt my puppies, but being stronger and holding them by the neck (gently but firmly) showed them that they were not in control, I was. Dogs will also use neck hold to reprimand another dog. I personally would just go with the belly up pup, but I also want to try to impliment this new kind of sitting collar hold too.

[@johnhansen8272]

Great video! She looks about 7 or 8 months old and I’m curious if she is crated all day, which may be necessary due to careers, we did it with our second lab and she was great.

Am seriously using soo many little bits of biscuits, I don't know if it's healthy or not. Thanks to all at McCann for your help!!!!

[@lauram3491]

I am not an expert in the least, but most times I use regular kibble instead of treats. I'll save the treats for an extra good reward 😁

Any tips on helping tiny dogs settle? My puppy only weighs 2 lbs and having a hard time

[@uragon63reybicol]

Thank you so much I need more your help for my PUPPY Belgian Malinois...

[@pamclarke6411]

Fantastic video!! Love Kayl's style and how she really helps me see how the dog thinks and feels.

[@stevenanthony199]

Hello Pam how are you doing today

[@dianechadwick5701]

❤the training worked really well with my first puppy who is now nineteen months… and guess what now I have another 9 week old puppy time to start again. Any tips on training two dogs?

[@anguspollock7529]

Can you do some videos with smaller breed puppies? We have a 9 week Boston Terrier who is very bitey and he's so incredibly small that firmer discipline feels impossible to do. We do use the puppy settle hold (although we don't grab collar we just pin him to our chest) which does seem to work but he's just so bitey during any toy play or when he's very excited.

Yes i have yorkie!

[@alishathompson7509]

This is very helpful. Exactly what we needed in our home.

[@whatchagonnadowhentheycomeforu]

I just love your videos! Thank u

[@brittanyedwards6043]

I hope this works for my rescue who is probably close to 2 years old but is still mouthy. Her previous owners didn’t address it. She is not aggressive, she just doesn’t know how to play with humans.

[@sherylannesandiego1096]

you saved my life thank you so much

[@gracehowe3692]

Thank you so much. This was very helpful.

[@madisyngriffis9398]

I just brought home my corgi puppy. She is 9 weeks. I am struggling with the biting so much! I hope these tips work.

[@vickisibley5330]

our new corgi pup is 8mos. I feel like a pin cushion. Hubs is on blood thinners so a nip could be quite serious. Have you seen any improvements?

[@tiffanykennedy788]

I have a 13 week old Corgi. I have had him for 3 weeks. The biting is too much for me. I am going to re-home him to a farm. I watched a video from a Corgi owner who described Corgi breed as needing a job to do since they are headers. When Cooper bites at me when walking indoor around my feet I just try to incorporate him into a job like using the swifter instead of showing my hyper frustration. This got me through the day but this isn't for me.

[@EarzOnTunz]

Your vids are helping a lot. Thanks so much and your face and voice remind me of Kelly Rippa! :-D Thanks again for doing these videos ... I have a husky puppy and we dyin over here lol !

[@amberlikely420]

This video is so helpful!! I’m going to try these techniques out on my puppy. I need to also find a way to get my puppy to stop showing aggressive behavior when he takes something he knows isn’t his and when he’s commanded to drop it, he runs away, hides, and then starts growling and snarling at you if you try to take it from him. He even bit me the other day when I went to grab the item out of his mouth! When I yelped from pain, he immediately dropped the item and started trying to snuggle up under me while licking me, which makes me believe he knew he did a bad thing. How do you break this behavior??

[@amberlikely420]

@Adrian-zb3ft the dog Penny in the video?

[@AndreaS-kr9fh]

Wow!! Thank you for this video. We just got a Rottie back in December and she is so stubborn. I cannot wait to try these things on her. She has definitely gotten better with stuff we've been doing, but I love these techniques,.

[@JustVisiting]

I have a 13 week old mini Aussie. She’s a real sweetheart, until witching hour, then she nips a lot.

[@terry2t889]

😂😂 gave me hope too 🙏for our new 9 weeks old shark( mini golden doodle ) since we got him at 8 weeks old he’s fighting,roaring like lion biting, barking,he is l🐶🦁🦈(all in one small creature 🤣) 🤷‍♀️he’s so energetic & sassy too. i told my daughter to give him back to the breeder telling him that he deceived us, cause we want a puppy not a monster 🤣 but he so cute while sleeping 😍 God be with all of us & calm our little fur monsters 🤗

[@brianadams8748]

[@carolboren3399]

[@leelandforestfarm]

Wow! Such a great lesson. Soooo good. Thank you!!

[@awright2945]

My puppy NEVER relaxes when I hold her in settle. She fights harder, bites harder goes floppy and I lose every time. I need Kayl !!

[@CrimsyCreates]

I have a 9 months old miniature dachshund who's been regressing a bit with his biting lately and I tried this technique for the first time, but he threw the biggest tantrum and went full floppy mode on the floor and was very stubborn in not wanting to settle. I kept holding him despite him twisting around like crazy and once he settled I praised him and gave him a treat, but the moment he's calmer and I let him go to get up, he goes back to his shenanigans and it's all rinse and repeat from there. Another worry I have with this technique is that he's so stubborn I'm afraid he will choke himself if I hold on too long or hurt his neck/back while twisting around on the floor. I'm sure you know, but Dachshund have a fragile neck and back, so I'm really worried this could hurt him. Also he's smaller and doesn't have nearly as much loose skin for me to grab around his neck than this puppy in the video, so I'm wondering if this technique is the best for that specific breed. Any tips would be appreciated. (｡-人-｡)

[@patrick7mary]

I have a GS rescue and he is 18 months mouthing me, lol, not my hubby. I haven’t tried this yet. But I think she said if the neck hold resorts to flopping about (mine does this, these clever pups;) I think she said to do that thumb hold which gives you more control to pull up for the dog to sit. Then kind of keep tension on leash so they can’t flop down while a gentle but firm grip on the collar while saying “calm” or “settle” in a firm voice. Then even if you get 2 seconds of the dog relenting, submitting, stop praise give treat. Then repeat the process a couple times. I think since this is new behavior from you, to just give it a few seconds, firm quick. Then in time with consistency, our pups will know biting hands off limits. ( I also want to hold my Henry’s paw without him grabbing my hand with his mouth, so I can eventually trim his nails, or just inspect his fur without him attacking me like it’s a game, lol.) this was one of her best videos! I learned so much! ( I read that they will eventually grow out of this too that their back molars may still be growing until 2 years old, so they will grow out of mouthing... )

[@Mommy_Paladin]

Yup this technique turned my playful nipper into a monster. Did not work for us. Nothing is working.

[@jlt131]

Can you guys do a video on stopping digging in the yard? my 9mo old puppy thinks it's a game when i try to stop him, even if i distract him with a toy or some other task, he'll bounce right back over to his dig spot. >.< he thinks it's a game!

[@sandynieves3453]

This video is GREAT...Would this technique work using a harness?

[@hanswurst2220]

even better with a harness since you can hold the dog better

[@ritanelson87]

I have a stafforshire terrior puppy 6 months, I found out he was taken from his mother at 6 weeks, I believe that is where some of his behavior is coming from not having the correction from the mother. What can I do to make him calmer and socialized and a great pet. There is alot of mouthing toys and family. Any answers would be great. Thanks

[@everettwhite9874]

Rita, that sounds so familiar to me with my 6 month German Shepherd. Maybe he was taken from his mom early too. 🤷🏽‍♂️ However, I’m working on this behavior too and he’s not too bad but I want the nipping to stop completely. He’s pretty anxious licking and slightly mouthing when I reach to pet him sometimes. Other than that training is coming along well with other behavior and commands. We’ll work it out and so will you guys. Good luck.

[@ritanelson87]

@@everettwhite9874 thank you 😊

[@erinwithanE1216]

That’s so interesting!! We have a mastiff puppy. She was 1 of 16, unfortunately….her Mama died right after her c-section. Which is So tragic…the breeder essentially raised her right when she was born. I think without Mama, she did miss out on those corrections. We struggle with biting!
